FOXBORO, Mass. – Cam Newton has obviously been the favorite to win the position of initial quarterback of the New England Patriots, and based on the order and number of practice rehearsals, the festival is moving more and more in that direction.
But is Newton himself the title quarterback of the Patriots?
“Absolutely not,” Newton Wednesday on a conference call.
“Every day is one-day paintings for me, and that label is rarely very important to me right now,” Newton said. “I know there are so many things I want to improve on, so many things I want to learn, so many things I have to be comfortable with. And this process, is the last thing that worries me a lot, knowing that there are safe things when I get to the line of pounding, and it’s not as mentally pulling as I’d like. Portions that can be called. And I see a user like (Brian Hoyer) going to the line and it’s as sharp as possible. “
Newton said he trusted his quarterbacks, Hoyer and Jarrett Stidham, to collect the small main points of the offense.
“There are things I know I want to do, and until I do, everything else is irrelevant,” Newton said.
On Wednesday, Newton won 18 tries with Hoyer’s nine and Stidham’s six. The discrepancy in clichés is not as dramatic as in the years when Tom Brady was in the center, however, Newton seems to be moving away from the festival at the time of the week of the educational camp despite some expansion difficulties.
As for Newton’s wisdom about the Patriots’ offense, the 2015 NFL Most Valuable Player called it “work in progress,” but praised the efforts of offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels and quarterback coach Jedd Fisch.
“He has cured me, ” said Newton. “I just knew those guys were as patient with this procedure as I would have liked them to be. Obviously, learning a 20-year portion of games in a short time was tricky, but still, I think it would have been more complicated if you didn’t have the tutelage of coach Josh and Jedd.
“Even with those of other quarterbacks, those of (Brian) Lewerke, Stiddy edited me, Hoyster edited me, the receivers built me up. And that’s a smart recommendation that comes and goes. Obviously, there were things that hadn’t been implemented with me before as a quarterback.”
Newton and Brady are very different field marshals, so the 20-year-old formula is still in position, it could look a little more over time when Week 1 takes position if the person calling All-Pro assumes the initial role.
